Intro

E-F#-G#m-A

C#m                      B

I nearly died I suicided softly 

C#m

I saw her shadow through the cafe window 

G#m           F#    E

I watched you lean across the table

G#m           F#      E      F#

I watched you whisper in her ear 

Chorus

B              G#m    F#

And she is your holy Mary

          E     C#m

And I am so ordinary 

            D#m          E

And you can use me if you want to 

           C#m                 F#

I know you need me just like an old soft shoe 

C#m                               B

She looks like me but a bit prettier 

C#m

She's a skater and a ballet dancer 

G#m       F#      E

I saw her on your motorcycle 

G#m          F#           E        F#

In the seat I thought was meant for me 

Chorus

B              G#m    F#

And she is your holy Mary

And I am so ordinary 

            D#m          E

And you can use me if you want to

I know you need me just like an old soft shoe 

B        G#m  F#    E

And I am so or…dinary

C#m                                    B

And when your mother came to Boston you disappeared 

C#m

And then I saw you three together 

G#m         F#        E

I guess she makes the best impression 

         G#m      F# E   F#

With her charming femininity 

Chorus

B              G#m    F#

And she is your holy Mary

          E     C#m

And I am so ordinary 

            D#m          E

And you can use me if you want to 

           C#m                 F#

I know you need me just like an old soft shoe 

B        G#m  F#    E

And I am so or…dinary

B        G#m    F#

And I am so ordinary

Bridge

       E      F#        G#m            F#

Oh but I am the one you will call when alone 

    E      F#         G#m                 A

And I am the one who will give when she's gone 

G#m-F#-E

And so I give 

E-C#m

So I give 

C#m                              B

I tell myself that love is truly giving 

C#m

Somehow I justify this 

G#m     F#      E

Hoping you will understand me 

G#m     F#      E       F#

Hoping you will love me back 

Chorus

B              G#m    F#

And she is your holy Mary

          E    B

And I am so ordinary 

               G#m        F#

And she is your Queen Cleopatra 

                 E         B

And I'm just your morning after 

                G#m            F#

And she is your Star Spangled Banner 

             E

And I am just Frere Jacques…

                         E  C#m

And you can lose me if you…want to 

Coda

B        G#m  F#     E

And I am so or…dinary
